Once upon a time in faraway Ancient Greece lived a man. No – a lion man – a near Demi-God who went by the name… of Jason.Denied his kingdom by the mad King Pelias, he and his mighty crew will sail the seven seas in search of the Golden Fleece aboard the legendary vessel – The Argo.
Jason, the man with the one sandal, blessed by The Gods, returned to claim his rightful place upon the throne of Thessaly. Captain. Hero. Lover – long has his place in history been assured as the leader of this mighty crew of legends.
In the first chapter of his quest, Jason and his crew set sail for the fabled Isle of Lemnos, in search of news of the Golden Fleece.
It is said that the island is a land of only women.
I’m sure that had nothing to do with this being the crew’s first stop…
Will make a few updates throughout the week and so on to thank and highlight some of the many people who have been a real help and inspiration throughout and helped to make this campaign the success it has been.
For those that have asked, the additional funds (!) will be used as extra content, we can work on what that should be that once we are properly into development.
Thank you all once again - we did it, we actually did it!!

Cool game! I can't wait to play the demo! It's downloading. :-)
Hope that you will succeed in Kickstarter campaign. :-)
Good luck!
Thanks Vengeance - hope you enjoyed it, VERY close to a new demo now which hopefully will cover up all the bugs in the current version ;)
Mmh, love the art style and greek mythology, definitely tracking !
By the way, custom build engine ? Weren't you working on visionaire engine ? :/
Had to add the engine as new so will update soon as I can!
Hey Immudelki - thanks for the compliments and the track, very much appreciated!
Can I ask if you've played the game?
You're totally right, of course, I am using Visionaire now as it is fantastic! I'll update the engine details today.
Thanks again,
Kris
Hi, I've played the game, yep, here's my report (of course it's a very early alpha so most of the things I might say are obvious ^^) :
Lovely dialogs and art, of course ^^
When drag and drop an object from the inventory to the objects in the map, we need to see at least the name of the map object we go over, otherwise it's pretty painful.
No animation (character goes blank) when we use the sword on the chest.
(didn't now what to do after talking to the chest by the way)
The possibility to get into the water on the beach, with the little change in the animation (water to the legs) might be kind of trivial, but I find it really cool ^^.
When, in the dialog, we've got a choice, it's not clear that we've got one, we don't really see it's a dialog tree (choosing an answer etc...) need to be more highlighted.
The whole UI feels pretty big, but I assume it's becausethat you're mainly working for Ipad screen size.
Anyway, no major problem, a good start, want to see what happens next !
Hi,
Sorry for not replying sooner, thanks for the awesome feedback!
Haha, no 'of course' about it, really appreciate the complement as it took me a long time to get the style 'right'. We're talking months.
Great idea about the drag/drop on the items, dont want anything to be painful.
Currently working on a lot of animations particularly around the items. Same goes for the dialog - glad you could get so far!
The UI being big is really due to the fact im working on a one size fits all, I may well shrink it down - I guess I like the big chunky feel to it.
Ah, so happy someone spotted the change when you go in the water - I was really happy with that, as well as the splashy steps too!
If you've played the game then I probably have your email address (assuming you signed up from the site) so I'll let you know as soon as theres a new demo to play!
Thanks again, more soon,
Kris
